End of game in Milwaukee

Did anybody see the Milwaukee walk off win yesterday in which the Cubs catcher threw the ball into the ground after the umpire called the runner safe? Why did the umpire not eject the catcher? Just because the game is over doesn't mean you can't throw him out. Why did the umpire stand on the field despite the game being over? Why did he leave through the Cub's dugout, and finally why did he accept any argument from Lou Pinella? Once the game is over there is no use hanging around the field.
